peach cobbler

Southern orchard dessert

Peach cobbler is an American baked dessert of sweetened peaches topped with a biscuit or cake-like crust.

Unlike pie, the fruit sits on the bottom with dough dropped or spread on top, creating a rustic, uneven surface.

The dish is associated with Southern cooking and summer when peaches are in season: Grandma's peach cobbler was the highlight of every family reunion.
